End of HHJ Obsession/ Devotion

I've considered so many other areas of my life that could use this devotion. This is my goal deadline. I will have to purge all of my unused products and devote my time an energy to the betterment of another area of my life. MBL is my ultimate goal, but I have no idea where my hair will be come December 31, 2013. That will be five years of being hair obsessed.

Description: moisture shampoo

***NOTE: This post was hard for me due to several different reasons,but my pj review reputation depends on my honesty and no one will benefit if I sugar-coated. I am going to try to make this as quick and easy as possible.

Experiences:
It didn't provide me any slip. I was sooo disappointed after using this product. I believed the hype, not to mention I had been waiting to use this product for a while. I had been stalking the HN line for awhile.

I prepoo'd as usual with oil and Tresemme Remoisturize Conditioner. I then applied this shampoo and my hair was immediately stripped. I was surprised and almost scared b/c I have been spoiled by Kenra that I panicked trying to figure out how to fix this. I just thoroughly rinsed and gently squeezed my hair because it was so matted and tangled. I didn't even manipulate my hair it was just so stripped by this product.

My hair doesn't like this product and it's a shame b/c I really wanted to. Oh well, what can you do. I don't have any tips or recommendations b/c I only used this product once and as for second chances, Hmmph..I DON'T THINK SO.The fact that I did a normal prepoo and didn't even clarify before this poo makes me wonder what would've happened had I not prepoo'd as usual.This is why I am so scared to venture out with my poos.Not to mention, I was under the impression that this poo was all natural. I think I misread into some things.The ingredients are clearly listed on the site so I don't know why I made that assumption. I only have one more poo that I plan to try. After that one, I'll be stocking up my Kenra liter bottles again.
